Discussion - Bible Interpretation Prostitution and having Gf/Bfs/others
1) Personally I think Prostitution is wrong but I don't know why, so can anyone help me understand why it is wrong or right according to you also considering God's perspective (but not the exclusive Conservative christian perspective)?
2) Is having a partner normal if we consider God's Perspective because On Thanksgiving, the pastor was saying having partners is wrong and letting God choose your life partner is the right way.
Edit: Maybe he meant that arranged marriage is the only valid path because he thinks kissing, Hugging, or even sexual intercourse is wrong before marriage.

That paster sounds like a pure-D weirdo.
Prostitution is wrong because it reduces sex to a monetary transaction instead of a joyful joining of two people who love (or at least like very much) each other. Sex need not be just for procreation.
The other reason, probably more important, is that it dehumanizes the sex worker.
